Good morning gentlemen,

I have an issue in my code.

Here what I want the code do: when a stop loss is touched, a variable is set to 1 and a “range” is set too (+X and -X points at the Tradeprice(1) )

Here, visually:

-----Range Up (10020)
.
.
- Tradeprice (10000)
.
.
-----Range Down (9980)

In ordrer to do that, I code this:

// ForbidddenTradingRange

NoTrade = 0

if notrade = 1 then
RangeNoTradeUp = Tradeprice(1)+20
endif

if notrade = 1 then
RangeNoTradeDown = Tradeprice(1)-20
endif


// Long
indicator1, ignored, ignored = CALL "Unicorn Color"(close)
indicator2 = Average[30](close)
c1 = (indicator1 CROSSES OVER indicator2)


IF c1 and notrade=0 AND timeEnterBefore AND timeEnterAfter THEN
BUY 1 CONTRACT AT MARKET
ENDIF

// Close Long
indicator3, ignored, ignored = CALL "Unicorn Color"(close)
indicator4 = Average[30](close)
c2 = (indicator3 CROSSES UNDER indicator4)

IF c2 THEN
SELL AT MARKET
notrade=1
ENDIF

if close>RangeNoTradeUp or close<RangeNoTradeDown then
NoTrade=0
endif

// Short
indicator5, ignored, ignored = CALL "Unicorn Color"(close)
indicator6 = Average[30](close)
c3 = (indicator5 CROSSES UNDER indicator6)

IF c3 and notrade=0 AND timeEnterBefore AND timeEnterAfter THEN
SELLSHORT 1 CONTRACT AT MARKET
ENDIF

// Close Short
indicator7, ignored, ignored = CALL "Unicorn Color"(close)
indicator8 = Average[30](close)
c4 = (indicator7 CROSSES OVER indicator8)

IF c4 THEN
EXITSHORT AT MARKET
notrade=1
ENDIF

if close>RangeNoTradeUp or close<RangeNoTradeDown then
NoTrade=0
endif 



// SL and TP
SET STOP pLOSS 20
SET TARGET pPROFIT 20

When I backtest it, some trade don’t respect the rule “Forbidden Traading Range”.

I  think I miss something, but I don’t know what 😉

Thank you for your help.

I wish you a good day.
